Chapter 103: Treasure Essence Technique
Fang Lie found himself swept up by the crowd’s enthusiasm. He waved to the spectators before turning to the referee. "Did I win?"
"Yes," the referee replied, wiping sweat from his brow. "Fang Lie wins this match!"
Cheers erupted. "Fang Lie’s entering the inner gate!"
"Does that mean he’ll inherit the Benevolence Token? The youngest Token Lord in Mo Sect history!"
"With his temper, he’ll crack down on injustice! Those spoiled family disciples won’t dare bully us anymore!"
Outer disciples celebrated while family disciples squirmed like ants on a hot pan.
"How did Fang Lie get past this? Li Jing’s such a failure!"
"Once Fang Lie becomes Ancestor’s Token Lord, he’ll settle old scores! Remember when I broke his second brother’s leg last year?"
"I slapped his third brother and kicked the fourth into the river! If this gets out…"
"Worse yet, our elders have embezzled for years. Fang Lie won’t overlook that!"
"You think he’d purge eight-tenths of the higher-ups?"
"His family rules say ‘Break through the South Wall without turning back!’ He’ll execute every last one caught red-handed!"
"This’ll shake Mo Sect to its core!"
"Let the Clan Leader and Thunder Tribulation Immortals handle it. We’ll stay out of trouble."
Fang Lei scanned the crowd, then flew home astride the Ice and Fire Poison Dragon.
Later matches lost their luster as tension hung thick. In the Ascending Immortal Tower’s top floor, Thunder Tribulation Immortals berated the ashen-faced Bai Family Head.
"You couldn’t stop a mere Qi Sea cultivator? How?"
"Was it his strength or your incompetence?"
"You handed him the Blood God Puppet yourself! Made him unstoppable!"
"Once he claims the Benevolence Token, we’ll have to bow to a junior!"
"A Qi Sea realm brat lording over us? Mo Sect becomes a joke!"
"If he gains power, he’ll purge the sect! We’ll be ruined!"
All eyes turned to Clan Leader Mo Qianxun, who sighed. "Study the sect rules. Find any loophole to block his inner gate entry."
That evening, Fang Lie celebrated with siblings until nightfall before retreating to his stone chamber. Staring at his damaged Five Elements and Eight Trigrams Dao Robe, he sighed.
It can be said that Fang Lie’s narrow victory over Li Jing this time was mainly due to the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams Dao Robe, in addition to the old bird’s early warning! If not for the ‘Frame’ technique blocking the lethal Golden Dragon Roar at the critical moment, Fang Lie would have perished without a burial site. However, the Dao Robe itself sustained damage from withstanding Fourth-Rank power. When Fang Lie retrieved it, the Five Elements power flowing through it had nearly faded completely, clearly severely damaged. Without intervention, it might degrade or even be destroyed.
Having used this treasure extensively, Fang Lie cherished it deeply and urgently sought repairs. Lacking knowledge himself, he turned to the old bird: "Old bird, this broken Dao Robe – do you know how to fix it?"
"Of course!" The old bird declared proudly, "Such basic craftsmanship becomes clear at a glance. Repairing it is child’s play!"
"Fantastic!" Fang Lie pressed, "Tell me how!"
"Two methods exist. First, standard refining techniques – using smithing methods to restore it." The old bird explained, "Though simple in theory, mastery requires understanding divine patterns, Dao Patterns, talismans, formations, and materials. Your Nirvana fire gives talent for refining, but true expertise takes time."
"Clearly impossible for me now," Fang Lie frowned. "The second method?"
"Slowly nourish it with your own magic. Though time-consuming, this strengthens both the treasure’s power and your bond with it." The old bird revealed, "I possess the Treasure Essence Technique – a method letting Qi Sea cultivators nurture treasures effectively, surpassing even Golden Pool nourishment."
Without hesitation, Fang Lie requested: "Then I humbly ask our immortal ancestors to teach me this technique!"
Within the Cycle of Fire, colored light shot from the old bird’s eyes onto Fang Lie’s true spirit seed. Instantly, the complete Treasure Essence Technique imprinted itself in Fang Lie’s consciousness through their shared connection.
Fang Lie immediately began studying. The technique proved straightforward – mere practical application rather than profound cultivation. Within hours, he mastered it.
Biting his tongue, Fang Lie sprayed tongue-tip blood onto the Dao Robe. With bloodied fingers, he drew forty-nine mysterious symbols. After forming hand seals and channeling magic, the damaged robe transformed into light that entered his body.
Meditating internally, Fang Lie found the Dao Robe floating in his energy seas like a small boat. His pure magic continuously bathed the garment, its Divine Light gradually returning. The Dao pattern karp in his energy seas circled curiously, some merging into the robe itself.
As karp disappeared into the fabric, Fang Lie felt his connection to the Dao Robe deepen, control becoming more instinctive. Remarkably, each absorbed karp enhanced the robe’s mysteries – when fully repaired, its power would exceed before.
Though single karp brought minor improvements, hundreds already swam in Fang Lie’s energy seas, their numbers constantly increasing through the Nirvana Fire Nascent Fetus’s rhythm. Given time, the Dao Robe would accumulate enough karp to potentially advance ranks.
This revelation shocked Fang Lie: ‘The Innate Great Five Elements Nascent Fetus Classic proves extraordinary! A single Nascent Fetus yields such power – these Dao pattern karp enhance both innate talent and treasure capabilities, even enabling evolution! Were cultivation not my priority, embedding numerous treasures could make me invincible!’
